The Good Ghouls' Guide to Getting Even by Julie Kenner
3.0
Believable? Nope, not even as far as vampires go. Quirky? Yup. Funny? Yup. Entertaining? Yes,every bit of this quick and light read is wholly engrossing.
Yet, there isn't much to this YA book from Julie Kenner. It reads a lot like her Demon Hunting Soccer Mom books. The main character, Beth is a sixteen year old borderline geek who gets bitten by a studly vampire and made into a cheerleader type overnight. Beth doesn't take too kindly to this messing up her grades and possible college application. She and a cast of fun secondary characters embark on a plan to get revenge upon her football hero vampire master and thereby make herself human again. This book was definately worth the read and I expect to get the next installment soon. However, a word of warning...apparently 'Good Ghouls Do' leaves some cliffhangers also, and according to Julie Kenner's website, there are no plans to make a third installment. This scares me off a little, but I'm one book in, I figure I will read the next one too.
